My Road King leans forward on the side jiffy stand...can't seem to keep stand at 90 degree angle to bike...the bike will seem to roll foreword and the stand is against the safety tab. I know it probably won't fall over but seems like pressure on the side stand like that is asking for trouble?
Is there adjustment?
Just looking for your advice

This is normal, as long as it's locked in, don't worry about it.
I do always push the bike forward after locking the stand down to make sure it's locked.

 

I'd rather have it angling fwd then at a 90°. Just make sure its set all the way fwd and the bike isn't going to roll.

 

hard to get used to on a HD but it is normal

 

Ok sounds like I will have to get used to it.
I wondered if the spring was worn out or just what the deal was.

Nothing to worry about. I know that sometimes it doesn't "feel" right, when you're still sitting on the bike & putting the jiffy stand down, but if it's locked in and you get off the bike & actually look at it, you'll see you're fine.

 

Leave it in gear

 

You can tell when the spring is weak, the stand will drag on hard left hand turns. Mine did anyway.

 

Correct. Leave it in gear, roll it forward until it stops, then put the jiffy down. It won't roll forward anymore. My bike is 100% all the time in gear when I hit the kill switch. Never in neutral until I get ready to start. The tab on the jiffy is great, but I don't trust a little tit of metal to hold my 950 lb motorcycle.

Sure I know, it's been like this and has held many a bike solid since Moby Dick was a minnow, but .....
